    Taking cash is all you do? You don’t don’t make bagels? Are you thieves? Or do you mean to say you take cash in exchange for bagels?

      It’s just silly to refuse cream cheese, because cream cheese can make… wait for it… bagels!

      I would be bartering all kinds of condiments of I were a bagel shop owner

    hate to break it to you but that’s how economy operates in many places under russian occupation. people literally just barter stuff most of the time.

        yup. not even war zones themselves - the economy in the frontline cities is actually kinda booming but deeper into the occupied zone barter is basically the default outside of few cities.

          Still doesn’t make sense. Why do you “hate to break it to you”. A bagel shop would still not accept cream cheese as payment even in communities that trade goods.
